Biology: Enzymes Flashcards
1
Q
Define enzymes as proteins that function as biological catalysts.
A
Enzymes are proteins that function as biological catalysts.
2
Q
Investigate and describe the effect of changes in temperature and pH on enzyme activity.
A
When the temperature gets too high the enzymes denature. When the pH is too extreme (too acidic/basic), the enzymes normally denature.
